FEMALE FERTILITY TEST
The Barza Female Fertility Test is a rapid qualitative test for the detection of FSH (Follicle Stimulating Hormone) levels in urine to assess ovarian function.
Because the concentration of FSH hormone in your urine is influenced by a number of factors, such as water ingestion or sweating, you should test yourself at least twice. Decreased ovarian function is one of the possible causes of low fertility and if the test result is positive, you should consult your doctor.
MALE FERTILITY TEST
The Barza Male Fertility Test is a rapid test for the qualitative determination of sperm concentration in human semen as an aid to determining male fertility.
SP 10 is a protein present only in the testis and is used as an assay method to test sperm concentration. The concentration of SP 10 protein is proportional to the degree of sperm concentration in the seminal fluid. The test is positive when the sperm concentration is greater than 15×10(6)/ml.
How to use it?
FEMALE FERTILITY TEST
It is recommended to use the first morning urine containing the highest level of FSH. Daytime urine will contain lower levels which may indicate a false negative result.
Pipette 4 drops of the collected urine into the test port of the cassette.
MALE FERTILITY TEST
Transfer 0.1ml of semen, using the syringe, into the test tube with the buffer solution. Gently shake the tube to homogenise the contents, then leave for 2 minutes on a flat surface.
Wait 3 minutes for the result to be displayed.

FEMALE FERTILITY TEST
NEGATIVE RESULT: Ovarian function is within parameters
If only one coloured line appears on the test in the control area (C) or the test line (T) is lighter in colour than the control line (C). This result indicates the presence of FSH in the urine at a concentration below 25mIU/ml.
POSITIVE RESULT: Ovarian function is declining
If 2 distinct lines appeared on the test and the test line (T) is the same colour or darker than the control line (C). This result indicates the presence of FSH in the urine at a concentration equal to or greater than 25mIU/ml. If the test result is positive, it is best to repeat the test after 5-7 days, as FSH levels can vary during the menstrual cycle.
INVALID RESULT: Result not conclusive
If no line appeared in the control area (C) or only one line appeared in the test area (T). Repeat the test with a new test.
MALE FERTILITY TEST
NEGATIVE RESULT
Only one coloured line appeared in the control area of the test box (C) and no line in the test area (T) of the box. This indicates a negative result, with sperm concentration below 15×10(6)/ml.
POSITIVE RESULT
Two coloured lines appeared: one in the control area (C), the second in the test area of the box (T). This indicates a positive result, the sperm concentration is equal to or greater than 15×10(6)/ml.
INVALID RESULT
No line or only a line is visible in the test area (T) of the box, but not in the control area (C). Repeat the test with a new cassette test. Make sure that the volume of the sample to be analysed is sufficient. If the problem persists contact the manufacturer or distributor.

Product description
The Barza Female Fertility Test is a rapid, qualitative test that detects the level of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) in urine to assess ovarian function.
FSH levels may be increased in case of declining ovarian function (low fertility). It increases steadily with advancing age and approaching menopause.
During menstruation, or in the first 3 days after the end of menstruation, the test result should be negative. If the result is positive, this indicates that ovarian function is low.
The FSH level in urine is influenced by a number of factors, such as water ingestion or sweating, so the test should be performed at least twice. If the test result is still positive, you should consider that ovarian function is declining. As ovarian function begins to decline, the FSH hormone begins to rise, but not steadily.
Decreased ovarian function is one of the possible causes of low fertility so in the case of a positive result you should consult your specialist.
The operating principle of the female fertility test Barza
Increased FSH levels are associated with decreased estrogen levels and low fertility or menopausal stages. In these cases, the FSH level can increase up to 10 times the normal level (up to 110 – 500 mIU/ml).
During the test, a coloured line, visible to the naked eye, always appears in the control area (C). If the FSH level in the sample is equal to, or greater than, 25 mIU/ml, the colour of the test line (T) will be the same as or stronger than that of the control line (C), indicating a positive result. If the line to the right of the test area (T) does not appear or is lighter in colour than the control line (C), the test is negative.
The Barza Male Fertility Test is a rapid, qualitative test that detects sperm levels in seminal fluid samples to assess male fertility.
The Barza male fertility test can be used to help diagnose male infertility.
The operating principle of testului male fertility test Barza
SP 10 is a protein present only in the testis and is used as an assay method to test sperm levels in seminal fluid samples. The concentration of SP 10 protein is proportional to the concentration of sperm in the seminal fluid. The test is positive when the sperm concentration is greater than 15×106/ml.
During the test, when the sperm concentration in the semen sample is at or above the reference level, a coloured line, visible to the naked eye, appears in the test area (T), suggesting a positive result. The absence of this line suggests a negative result. A coloured line, visible to the naked eye, always appears in the control area (C) and indicates that the test was performed correctly.
